How not to have you tank stolen (aimed at n00bs) [message #-970572] Wed, 15 May 2002 01:38 Go to next message

To all you n00bs this is a fantastic tatic just for YOU on not geting your tank stoled by the enemy, it is SOOO simple that all us non-n00bs (whatever we are called) use it ALL the time when playing because it helps SO much any here is the simple tatic:

All you need to do is to stay in your tank when there is a good chance that the enemy will "borrow" it for a while, (this means that you can repair you tank when you are by the enemy infanty that has that $ sign in their eye

No hard to remember is it? (wait I forgot you were n00bs...) ofcourse us non-n00bs (what are we called anyway?) has this thing called common sense so we know all about this anyway without haveing to find out the hard way.

Bacicaly what I am trying to say (to everyone) is when you tank needs fixing press Alt + 1 (I need Repairs!) and then either:

1) Wait (maybe have your tank stolen)
2) Try to get back to base befor it is destoryed.

Remember if they steal a tank you are a tank down and they are a tank up (+ dont forget about the build limit)

If you want the n00bs to listen I recommend you don't make fun of them.

Whats wrong with that anyway? I find that a lot of people will sit there in spaming on te ALT + 1 24/7 and not consider going back to base.

Friendlies steal tanks sometimes; I've seen my Nod buggy get hijacked when repairing on a no-radar map. They rush the buggy into three med tanks and die.

Then they camp by airstrip waiting for a vehicle to steal. It's horrible. They stalk vehicles returning to base.

Friendly thieves are almost as bad as enemy thieves. They help the enemy by getting destroyed...

yes "friendly" thieves suck donky b@lls.
once in a game this prick sat by the airstrip and kept stealing peoples vehicles only to drive off, get shot to absolute s*** then respawn and steal another persons hard earned ride and the thing is there is nothing we can do about it
for example in a game these traitors kept destroying our base from the inside for two whole games! friendly fire was on and I had to keep killing them to try and save our base. I'd kill one who was trying to C4 a building thus our score would drop into minuses, then on the other side of the base a building would be under attack again!
in games like this, were stupid F***ers wreck the game we are ****d if we do and ****d if we don't.

my solution to that is simple:Ram them into a corner with a tank, so they get blocked and can't get out without suicide and loss of credits(which n00bs absolutely dread). Best with Nod and stealth tanks, which wonderfully have only one seat.

Other than that, stick a couple remotes on their behind, and if they go for the MCT blow them away.

Or, the catch-all solution: play on a no-FF server, with a host that doesn't take BS.

Or just watch the radar n00bs and hop back in if a teammate starts running for your tank... It really does not take skills, and only idiots get their tanks stolen by teammates... (With the excetption of when you get out of a vehicle to chase an enemy into one of your structures to prevent it from getting blown up as the rest of your team is too stupid to notice...)

and what if it is a no radar server?

And occasionally, you will see a tank stealer disguise themself as a helpful engie on their way to aid you. The only way to truly detect a tank stealer is after they take the tank. Just like the only way to detect a TK is AFTER they shoot you in the back.


on the brighter side, sometimes you can jump in and sieze the gun, because most tank stealers are utter n00bs who can't use q...which reminds me, I gotta remap the turret key to something else(put q as clip change, to be more convenient).

If I see someone steal my Tank, from my own team, I write down thier names on my 'To Kill Whenever Possible' list. If I'm really ****ed, I switch teams so I can properly harass the ass

FTT- Why did you blow up my Mammoth?
Me- Cause you stole it like a *****!
Host: Me switched teams
FTT- You left it out in the open
Me- While I was repairing it you dumbass?
FTT- Not my fault you let your gaurd down
|Zooms in with Pierce to the stupid dumbass obviously typing a message in the field...|
FTT- I only take the tanks that have noone in them, you should have let someone el....
Me killed FTT
FTT- I was typing!
Me- Suck me off ***** I was repairing, and you still took my tank

25 mins later
(I gots a SBH and picked up a Pierce, I'd killed noone but him, but I killed him 23 times)

FTT- you ******* stop it
Me- I see you again! Here I come Biznatch!!!
FTT- I'll get you another time
FTT quits

(an FTT is a ****ing Tank Thief)

Worse, 'cause they give the enemy points for killing them, they don't allow you to kill them (ff off), and they don't even get you points if you kill them.

Or then, if you had mines, you were a hottie/tech, which means that you could have fixed the tank and do some damage...???
